A block of mass 0.436 kg is hung from a vertical spring and allowed to reach equilibrium at rest. As a result, the spring is stretched by 0.634 m.
Find the spring constant.
The block is then pulled down an additional 0.382 m and released from rest. Assuming no damping, what is its period of oscillation?
How high above the point of release does the block reach as it oscillates?
